do you ever get the feeling ...

So do you ever get the feeling ... that someone is watching you?

Sometimes I do too.

Creepy, isn't it?

Mommy drew on me, so I'm on the interwebz!

So my mom sometimes gets these wild ideas and I just have to go along for the ride and make sure it all goes well.  She'd seriously be lost without me.

So anyway, yesterday she was all "Kelly I have this great idea" blah blah blah, something about a website and the next thing I know I wake up from a nap with a mustache and a goatee.

Yeah, kinda sick, donchay think?  So I had to take a bath, which I thought was fun until she busted out some stuff that tasted horrible and schmeared it on my upper lip. (She told me about 2 second too late to not eat it, hellllooooo, I'm a baby.  Put it near my mouth and I will try no matter what because the world is edible!)

Then I got this can and this funny long thing to chew on.

But right when I was figuring out how to really work the thing ...

... she took it away!  Seriously, what gives Ma?!

Anyhoo I was feeling mighty ticked about the whole thing, but then this morning she told me that I was famous. Um, yeah, I knew that already.  But I guess she shared my pictures with some other Mommy who put them on her blog/website and now other people are seeing how cute I am, even with faux facial hair.

Personally I think the Popeye and Catpain Morgan baby should be offered a movie deal any day now.

the 3 Bubbas

When my Gramps and TT were in Hawaii this summer they bought three shirts from a place called Bubba Gump: one for me, one for Micah, and one for Emma.

The reason?  My Daddy calls his brother Bubba.  When Emma was still cooking in Auntie Mel's tummy a joke started that she was a little Bubbette.

Cut to my Mommy's parents being in Hawaii, knowing these stories and they see these shirts.  One for a baby boy that says "Little Bubba" and they thought to their grandparenty selves "Oh Kellan would look sooo cute in that! And his Uncle Bubba will think its funny!" But then they saw it in pink!  And it said "Little Bubbette" instead of Bubba!  And they said to themselves "Oh Uncle Bubba's little girl needs one of those!"  So they got me and Emma "little Bubba" shirts, found Micah one that he would like, and we brought them to Iowa with us ...

The 3 Bubbas

Super adorable in our Bubba gear, aren't we? :)

Thanks Gramps and TT!

okay, okay, okay

So here's the deal, my mom has been a total slacker lately.  Well at least with blogging for me.  Every day I'm like "hey, you put up that new weeker picture yet?" and she's all "oh, yeah we need to do that!" But does it get done? Noooo.  Seriously, I was nearly ready to figure out the whole typing thing myself!

So we have a lot of updating to do, and chances are they won't all be done today but here's a little tidbit to start you on.

Today the weather is super nice so Mommy and I went for a jog/ride.  She jogs, I ride, I think its a good deal.  Well she took this picture of me while we were out.

Do I look scared, worried, a bit tense?  Well that's cuz Mom was still moving while taking this picture.  Now if you don't know this about my Mommy let me tell you: she can make you giggle, she gives some of the best snuggles and cuddles out there, but the woman has less coordination than I do and everyone is uber impressed I am sitting up on my own once they prop me up.  To add to that, multitasking on physical tasks?  Um, yeah, not such a good idea.  So if I look worried its because I was all strapped in and not able to get up and administer basic first aid were she to, you know, go boom.

As luck would have it, she stayed up right, and I was so worn out from the looking around, fresh air, and worrying about Mommy's coordination it knocked me right out.

Not a bad start to a day if you ask me!

what is raynuh?

I do a lot of sky watching from my carseat and I have noticed that in the last couple of days the clouds have been blocking my view. Not sure why that is, but yesterday I noticed that the clouds leaked a bit.

Super weird.

Last night we were relaxing and Daddy took me outside because he said the weather was nice. The temperature was nice because it wasn't blisteringly hot, but I am not sure what he was looking at because the sky was leaking big time. It was dark, so I couldn't see what was going on too well, but I noticed if I looked at the ground I could see what was happening a bit easier.

Um, guys? The sky seems to be peeing!

Not sure why Mommy and Daddy were cool with this, cuz when I leak they get all uppidy and try to cover me up with a diaper.

nice place ya got here

My Gramps had a birthday over the weekend, so we went out to eat.

I should say, the big people ate. I got held and teased with solid food. I really want to eat food but the doctor says I should wait. I say we should be rebels and ignore the doctor -- pass the calzone Daddy!

Anywhoo, this nice man at the restaurant felt bad since my family starves me {Editors Note: Spinato's actually gives all babies a shirt on their first trip in to their restaurant. Clever marketing if you ask me. ~Kellan's Mom} so he gave me a shirt. Not that I can eat a shirt (trust me, I tried) and feel better, but at least the guy tried.

And you gotta admit, I look dang good in it!

So if you want to get your pizza on, like I so desperately do, go there. Tell them I sent you.

roooooad trip!

We had to get out of the heat on Sunday, so I took Mommy, Daddy and Micah on a little road trip up north.

In all fairness, Daddy did the driving, but it was my idea.

Apart from the fact I really hate how altitude changes make my ears feel, we had lots of fun. I took a few naps, we got to be in cooler weather (it was 92 degrees and that felt fabulous!) and we had a good time.

lil vent and some pics

So I have started my new meds and stopped taking the old ones, but I am having a really hard time with it. I don't sleep like I want to. I feel jumpy when I fall asleep and any little sound wakes me right up. The end result is I am hardly napping and really restless at night. Its not very fun. On top of that, and probably a lot more annoying is that I am getting sick a lot and even choking a bunch again. Its kind of frustrating. The new medicine can take two weeks to work, so I keep telling my parents we are supposed to be patient, but I don't think they like it. I don't either, but I am trying to be a big boy about it.

I am 20 weeks old as of today, we will post a picture later on. For now though I wanted to share these ones:

My mother's sense of humor never ceases to amaze me. This was before my new medicines, back in the days when I would sleep much easier. I was playing and just rested my head for a bit ... I guess I zonked out. Mommy did re-position me, but only after snapping a picture.

I don't know why this one is so funny to everyone. Mom and Dad say something about me looking like the movie poster for Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas but they said I can't watch the movie until I am older.

Last but not least, my Daddy makes these duck noises that I just love. He was leaning over me making them and I wanted him to get closer so I could try to see how he does it. But he wasn't taking my subtle hints, so I had to be a bit more direct.

aawwww

This is my cousin, Emma. She heard I wasn't feeling super duper and this is what she had her Mommy do.

Thanks Auntie Mel and Emma, I feel better already! :)

check me out

Not much to say, just have to share how absolutely adorable I am. Mommy says I am a good little model (if she feeds me first!).

If you would like to see more pictures of me (and my parents actually know you) leave a comment or ask my Mommy or Daddy for the password to our photobucket. I have tons of pics there!

me 'n my doggie

This is Bodhi, he is one of my puppies. Bodhi isn't sure what I am just yet. He likes to sniff me, but since he has never smelled baby before he is still pretty curious. He wants to lick me bunches, but mommy and daddy won't let him too much, which is cool with me because I don't much care for it! My other doggie, Guinness, is cool too. She sniffs me but is less inclined to lick!

one of my first outings

So I was a big help to mom and helped her take my big brother Micah to school the other day.

As you can see, I find car rides really thrilling!

Frankly, I hate getting in my car seat, but once I am in it its not so bad.
